Loading ...In the video studio
Alex Watson
Clive, Phil and Orestis have spent most of this afternoon in Dennis’ new video studio. The company spent the first few months of the year building it (at a cost of about £50,000 when you factor in the cameras and lights), and this was the first time we’ve had the chance to use it - previous videos such as our GeForce 9800 GX2 teardown were shot in glamorous conference rooms elsewhere in the building. The studio looks great - it has an ‘infinity wall’, so the join between floor and back wall is curved so that it appears invisible, a green screen curtain, and because it has a white floor, you have to wear special bootees over your shoes (shots of these later in the post). As well as a nice room we’ve also got some professional camera men and editors, too. And what, you might ask, were we filming? As you can see from the shot above, size comparisons of graphics cards…. Since I’m under NDA until Monday the 16th, I can’t tell you what the one in the middle is, but you can expect benchmarks aplenty as well as us taking it to pieces.
The special studio bootees we have to wear to stop our mucky trainers ruining the white floor of the video studio.
Phil and new CPC recruit Orestis hanging out in the studio, complete with studio shoes.
I notice the Coke can ,being used for scale no doubt, but couldn’t help wondering just how many pounds of kit could be destroyed by one false move sending glorious full fat Coke over those suger hating PCBs 
We don’t need the help of Coca Cola to blow stuff up :p
